Thanksgiving

This year for Thanksgiving we got the chance to celebrate with friends. Krista who was 8 months pregnant hosted this at her home. The Jimenez Family was there complete with their new addition baby Eli, Krista & Matt, Kristen (Matt's sister), and then the Pritchett's. Thanksgiving is probably my favorite Holiday, no expectation on presents just yummy food and great family and friends. Matt & Phil deep fried a turkey - yes we live in the south. I made a brined turkey just in case something went wrong with the two engineers and a lawyers plan..

Thanks for hosting Faulkners!!!

Food is ready - let's eat:)

Angie's Mom - who was visiting from Canada, and me:)

Salad - I love a yummy salad with lots of goodies in it....

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL!!!

Happy Anniversary

This year our anniversary was #4. I can't believe it has been four year of marriage. I am grateful for Bruce and what he adds to my life. I truly am a better person because he is right next to me.

Here are our gifts to each other. I was at a youth stake fireside and the Stake President was talking about the paintball gun that is the best. As you know Bruce loves to play paintball. So here you go - Bruce got a new gun which he broke in right away and flowers for me.

It's a Dog's Life

Bruce and I always joke that we want to come back as Oliver in our next life. In the morning Bruce usually will take him out, and then Oliver will run back upstairs to catch some more sleep. More often than not, we find him upside down with his legs in the air, sleeping away. We just love this little guy!!!

IVF Cycle 2

Here we go again. We started our next cycle of IVF in October. In November it really kicked into high gear, and we did the transfer on November 17th. This time I wasn't afraid of the shots or the transfer. I am just afraid to hear the results of whether it worked or not. All looks good for now and we will know more on November 30th. Thanks for all of your prayers and support--I know that we have been blessed by them and I can't express all of gratitude I feel.

Calendar on the Fridge to help me track everything:

Thing 3 and Thing 4. We just can hope and pray that they take and turn into babies.....
